Syntax For Passing Member Filters In URL’s (examples)

Level Name and member values

If you want to filter the view for a particular value(s), specify the level name and value(s) for the level(s) that will be used to filter the view.

&<Level Name>=<Key Value>

Example with one member specified:

&Region=300

Example with multiple members specified:

&Region=300;400

Notes: A semi-colon is typically used to separate multiple values specified for a single level. See the &D syntax in the next row of this table for more info and alternatives.

The specified values for each level in the URL will either be included or excluded from view results based on how the level filter is configured in the view. If the level has an existing filter, that filter’s mode of Include or Exclude will be retained. If the level does not have an existing filter, then an Include filter will be added.  

Optional; use if filtering by level members

Delimiter that is used between key values URL using a member filter. Syntax &D

Defines the delimiter that is used between key values. Choose a delimiter that will not exist in your key values. For example, if your key values typically include a semi-colon, then you will need to choose a different delimiter. Do not use & or = as a delimiter.  

Optional alternate

Syntax For Passing Stratum Parameters In URL’s (examples)

Stratum Parameters

&vp:

If your view uses Stratum Parameters and you want to specify a filter using the Stratum Parameters, the syntax is as follows.

&vp:<Stratum Select Member Parameter Name>=<Values to filter>

&vp:<Stratum Drop Down Parameter Name>=<Value to filter>

&vp:<Stratum User List Parameter Name>=<User List ID to filter>

&vp:<Stratum Expression Parameter Name>=<Expression to filter>

Notes: A semi-colon is used to separate multiple values specified for a Select Members type of parameter.

If you want all members considered by a Select Members or Drop Down parameter, then you need to specify “All <name of the hierarchy associated with the parameter>” as the parameter value
.
The specified values for each parameter in the URL will either be included or excluded from view results based on how that parameter’s Filter Mode is configured in Viewer. If a parameter has a mode of “Include”, the values passed along to the view by the URL will be returned as part of view results. If a parameter has a mode of “Exclude”, the values passed along the view by the URL will not be part of view results – all member values except the ones specified by the URL will be a part of view results.

Optional; use if filtering by Stratum Parameters

Tips For Locating Info Used In URL’s

Where To Find View ID’s

Search for the view using the top panel in Stratum and look at the ID in the View list window where search results show up. If you are already using the view, right-click its name and select Properties. The ID shows in the Properties window.

Yes

Where to Find Level Names

You can use either the level name or its caption in the URL syntax. The caption always displays in the grid when you run the view. Level names and their captions display in a level’s Properties window. Right-click the level in the Stratum view or view explorer and select Properties.

Optional; use if filtering by level members

Where To Find Stratum Parameter Names

Any URL copied from the Share View URL window contains the names of parameters if the view has Stratum Parameters.

The name of a parameter also can be found in view explorer. Right-click the associated view name in the Stratum View Pane and select Edit. Expand the parameter group for the parameter to see the parameter name. The name also shows in its Properties window, accessed by double-clicking the parameter in view explorer.  

Optional; use if filtering by Stratum Parameters

Where To Find User List ID

A User List ID is needed if your URL references a User List Parameter. To find an ID, go to Stratum’s User List list window and look at the List ID info for the list. If you have a list open in the User List Maintenance window, the List ID shows as one of the properties in the Attributes section of the window.

Optional; use if filtering by Stratum User List Parameter
